Bengaluru residents can expect heavy rainfall, thunderstorms, and lightning on April 3, 2025, as the India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a yellow alert for the city. Temperatures are predicted to drop by 3 to 4 degrees Celsius, accompanied by gusty winds.

The rainfall is attributed to a cyclonic circulation in the Bay of Bengal, which has intensified into a depression off the coast of Odisha.
